VISION STATEMENT

Our vision is that all people seeking a relationship with God can come to Columbine United Church and find a welcoming community that will accept them, care for them, provide the means by which they can explore and celebrate their relationship with God, and be challenged to live their faith in accordance with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

A person who embraces the spirit of the following plan will be inspired to live their commitment to all three phases of church life: the participatory experience, the volunteer experience, and the financial support of the church community.

MISSION STATEMENT

The Mission of Columbine United Church is to inspire and sustain a faith driven church environment where members, friends and seekers of all ages may explore and develop their personal relationship with God. We seek to grow our faith through the teachings of Jesus Christ and the study of scripture, critical thought and theological exploration, and in fellowship with others, regardless of racial, ethnic or religious background, gender, or sexual orientation. We value a church community that is Christ–centered yet theologically open, ecumenical, participatory and dynamic – where faith and life meet.

Columbine United Church will serve as an inspirational guide to its members and friends and a beacon of Christianity to the community. We will feature sacred celebratory and progressive worship, innovative programs to challenge body, mind and soul, care and nurturing from cradle to grave, and significant member participation in the life and mission of the church.
